The societal benefits of hydropower systems (eg, relatively clean electrical power, water
supply, flood control, and recreation) come with a cost to native stream fishes. We reviewed …

Alteration in the river flow regime due to intermittent hydropower production (ie,
hydropeaking) leads to biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation worldwide. Due to the …

Small reservoirs are prevalent landscape features that affect the physical, chemical, and
biological characteristics of headwater streams. Tens of thousands of small reservoirs, often …

Anthropogenic climate change is rapidly altering aquatic ecosystems across the Rocky
Mountain West and may detrimentally impact populations of sensitive species that are often …

Fine sediment decreasing gravel permeability and oxygen supply to incubating salmonid
embryos, is often considered the main contributing factor for the observed decline of …

It was assumed that sediment release from a reservoir would trigger forestation and change
the spatial pattern of tree recruitment in the downstream. This study tested these hypotheses …

Groundwater-surface water interactions in rivers are a critically important factor for fish
spawning, as streamwater downwelling or upwelling of low-oxygen groundwater can affect …

Community attributes result from processes operating at various spatial scales. The
hierarchic organisation of rivers and the prevailing hypotheses about the variables that affect …

Predicting whether anthropogenic sources of mortality have negative consequences at the
level of population dynamics is challenged by mechanisms like density‐dependent survival …

Hydroelectric dam operation causes total dissolved gas (TDG) to be seasonally elevated in
the lower Columbia River, as surface water concentrations approach 120%. Federally …
